Wheel alignment w/new tires

I just got new tires (BFG G-Force Sport 245/50-ZR16) and the car started drifting slightly toward the left. So I brought it back for an alignment and it drives straight again, but am not sure on the specs (I posted on other boards but need more opinions):

Before (front)
LEFT -- Camber = .01*, Caster = 4.7*, Toe = -.08"
RIGHT -- Camber = -.0*, Caster = 4.2*, Toe = .06"
FRONT -- Cross Camber = .1*, Cross Caster = .5*, Total Toe = -.02", Set Back = .35*

After (front)
LEFT -- Camber = .01*, Caster = 4.7*, Toe = .10"
RIGHT -- Camber = -.01*, Caster 3.2*, Toe = .05"
FRONT -- Cross Camber = .2*, Cross Caster = 1.5* Total Toe = .15", Set Back = .54*

If these are really off, I have a hard time believing it since the car drives great (straight at all speeds even at 75-80mph, steering wheel is perfectly straight, etc). Should I just ignore what the paper says since it rides good? I appreciate everyone's input. Thanks
